Rounder Vinilo y CD

Review: Along with standard and splatter edition vinyl versions, Sarah Jarosz's Polaroid Lovers also hears a CD issue here via Rounder. The seventh full-length LP from Jarosz hears the singer-songwriter combine aspects of picture and sound, homing in on the aesthetic potential of the instant film camera and the philosophy of production that it conceives. With every song from 'Jealous Moon' to 'Mezcal And Lime' aiming to capture the parallel feeling that the Polaroid camera engenders - that of a moment being so fleeting, and yet making said moment last a lifetime - we're left with a refreshing country-pop album that revels in the present and basks in the little things, while nonetheless not shying from the big questions and heart-thrums behind these pleasures. 'The Way It Is Now' is a particular highlight, making for a cool mix of nocturnal Baltimore-ish house and feel-good songwriting.
